From the moment you arrive, you will be swept into an era of the past, experiencing new excitement or the reliving of childhood memories. This two-hour, 20 mile round trip will take you on a spur of the historic Boston and Maine Railroad laid in the late 1800's to serve the historic "Grand" Hotels of the region.

The older car, the Indian Waters, is an exquisite 1924 Pullman-Standard Victorian Coach, filled with brass, stained glass and deeply aged woods. The popular 1952 Pullman Planetarium car, the Granite Eagle, is an unusual tri-level car with an upper observation dome that also has windows fore and aft, giving the diner views forwards and back while the car is underway. There are also two coach-level sections, and a sunken lounge for large parties. This car was the very first DOME car to enter New Hampshire when brought from Kansas by rail in the winter of 1995. The Algonquin 1953 X-CNR Café coach, with its spacious and open interior is perfect for private parties, weddings, and corporate outings.

These three unique dining cars will offer spectacular views of the picturesque Pemigewasset River with its surrounding fields and forests. In the spring and summer keep your eyes peeled for moose, deer and bear while waving to the canoes and Kayakers floating lazily down the river. Observe the spectacular foliage right outside your window in the fall. 6000 watts of halogen flood lights illuminate the outside scenery for excellent nighttime viewing all year long. We travel rain, sleet or shine.
